Mr. Orchard, of tlie Waterworks

furnish water tree for a hydrant to lie
pul in near the school building, provid
ed the City would bear tlie expense oi
the hydrant. On motion tlie Recorder
was instructed to order another hydrant
for tlie place.
City Attorney May submitted hia re
port with reference to tlie controversy
tietweed the city authorities and Coun
ty Authorities relative to double taxation
of proj>erty within tlie City limits. Mr.
May stated that lie had appeared before
the County Court, and made to it a prop ,
oeition as ordered by the Council at its
last meeting.
Tlie proposition made to the County
Court was as follows:
"Tillamook Ore. Mayßth 1807,
To Tillamook County, Oregon, and
the Hon. Judge, and Cuuimisioiiera
thereof;
Gentlemen;
The City of Tillamook by its Attorney
W. J. May, duly authorized, begs leave
to submit tlie following proposition to
wit: That whereas, during Ilia month
of January 1897 the County Court of Mid
county levied a tax upon the persons
and property of said city, and Mid city
likewise leved a tax upon Mid persons
and property, and siuco Mid taxes 00
levied are in conflict in certain particn-
lare, and in case Ilia eaid persona aud
property ownerwjesiding or owning prop
vrty is Mid city pay ell of said taxes so
levied they will iu certain particulars be
paying double taxes, not authorized by
law ; mid whereas said city at its said
January meeting at which suid levy was
made did levy the following taxes upon*
the persons and property within said
city to wit: two mills general tax, two
mills road tux ami two dollars pvoll tax
(road poll) aud said County Court nt its
said January meeting did levy upon tlie
said persons and property a five mill
road tax and it two dollat road poll tax ;
Now, therefore, said city would most
respectfully ask said lion. Court to in
struct the sheiitl and tax collecter
of said county te collect and turn over
Io said city the nniount of taxes so levied
by it as aforesaid and not to collect from
the lesidenls of saiil city liny other road
poll tax, mid further instruct said sheriff
to collect from the taxable property of
said city enough additional road tax
over mid above that levied by laid city
to make 6 mills road tax which addition
al sum lie shall likewise collect for mid
tm ii over to said T illamook City.”
Respectfully Submitted,
Tillamook City,
by W. J. May, Atty.
The county co urt it seems expressed
a willingness to let tbe city have the 5
mill road tux if it bo insisted, to expend
the whole inside tbe city limits, but
Judge Conder atateil Hint lie did not
think it the best policy for the city so to
do as some of the 6 mills should be ex
pended oil the roads lending into town,
especially that leading west.
The county court at its last meeting
had taken the matter under advisement
and made the following order:
"In the matter of n double levy of
certain taxes within the incorpoi ata
limits of the City of Tillamook
It ap
pearing to the satisfaction of the court
that there is a double levy of taxes made
in the said city to the amount of 2 mills
on the property mid $2 00 poll tax for
roml purposes.
It is hereby ordered Hint the shei iff do
not collect two mills on all the property
ivitlilnthe limits of said Tillamook City
so leved for roml purposes, mid not to
collect |2.00 poll tax so levied for road
purposes within said incorporate limits
of Baid city, ami that at the filial settle
ment with saiil sheriff he shall be credit
ed with said taxes ordered not collects I.'
This order of the county court was
understood by the council to be a tacit
refusal to grant the eitv the entire 5
mills mid a determination to collect the
said 5 mills ami use it ns the court saw
best, ami on motion of uouiicilman Rey
Holds seconded by councilman Hadley
a resolution was passed that injunction
proceedings be commenced ami the coun
ty enjoined from collecting any tuxes
ill excess of the legal levy
The following bills were presented

What Ila Lost.
I was on a cycling tour and. on arriv
ing at the ton of a strep bill, I was
told by an old woman that a few days
be'ore a young mail had been killed.
On closer inquiry as to the cause of
the accident, ehe told me he had “loot
something off hia macliine.'’
1 suggested parts of the machine—via.
brake, pedals, lamp
'No; eke didn’t think it was any of
that ”
Then a bright idee struck ma, and I
asked her if control was tbe “eome
thing” he had lost.
”Ah I” she exclaimed
"that’s it: he
Let control of hie macliine!”—Answers
